Reduced endometriosis symptoms
79 people found this helpful
I have been taking evening primrose oil for the second year, and the results are very positive. My chronic endometriosis has improved; I now have small lesions that are asymptomatic. The nodes formed in mastopathy have disappeared from my chest. I did not follow the doctors' appointments and solely relied on primrose. The ultrasound results were surprisingly favourable. My daughter, who struggled to conceive for a decade, became pregnant after just a month of taking primrose. I was astonished. Thanks to this supplement, I was able to stop the hormones I had been taking for about 15 years. I am incredibly grateful to iHerb for the chance to regain our health.

Painless menstruation
10 people found this helpful
Menses without pain: does it happen?! I have a broken cycle, with periodic brown discharge (endometriosis) and swelling. My breasts hurt a lot before menstruation, my appetite increases, and my stomach grows. During menstruation, especially the first two days, I experienced terrible pains! Pain relievers provided little help. I took primrose, vitex, inositol, and mint capsules. In the first month, I saw no changes; my periods were late, and the pain persisted, but it was less intense. To my surprise, the second month my period came on time without any pains at all! I was elated as I never knew menstruation could be painless! My breasts also did not hurt at all! I'm thrilled and will keep ordering these capsules.

Breast pain relief
10 people found this helpful
I bought evening primrose oil for PMS symptoms as my breasts hurt and swelled right before menstruation. I heard that this oil could help, and indeed, my breasts stopped hurting before my next cycle! I take one capsule a day with fat and omega 3 for better absorption. I’m very pleased my breasts have stopped hurting as mastopathy raises breast cancer risk! The capsules are large but smooth. Evening primrose oil is beneficial, and if this was helpful, please give it a thumbs up!

Improved PMS symptoms
5 people found this helpful
Amazing oil for women! I didn’t expect such a positive effect from evening primrose oil. I had been struggling with PMS for a year and started taking a capsule daily. The manufacturer recommends taking it three times daily, but I opted for one capsule before bed. After one month, my mood improved, and I had no chest pain or swelling. My periods were lighter, without weight gain or fluid retention. Even though symptoms returned slightly after stopping, I’m still happy with the results and hope this review helps you!

Improved fibrocystic symptoms
2 people found this helpful
I have fibrocystic breast disease, and my condition worsened before my menstrual cycle, causing chest swelling and pain that affected my mood. After several months of taking primrose alongside indole, all my symptoms have either diminished or vanished entirely, and I no longer experience any pain in my chest. However, I noticed that my cycle became erratic after ceasing the supplement, which prompted my gynecologist to prescribe hormone therapy. I'm uncertain of the exact connection to the oil, but it’s worthwhile considering.

Migraines improved

I took this supplement on my doctor's advice for severe menstrual migraines. After two weeks, I noticed a significant improvement. My headaches during menstruation ceased, my breasts stopped swelling, and I felt less irritable. This formula is effective with natural ingredients. Moreover, primrose offers antioxidants and vital nutrients, which are beneficial for maintaining healthy skin, hair, and nails. Therefore, I highly recommend it.

Effective pain relief

I bought this drug on the advice of friends with similar symptoms. I struggled with pain and swollen breasts for two weeks before menstruation. After nearly 2 months of taking it, I was astonished when my period came without symptoms! I even had relief from severe headaches. Although the effect wasn’t immediate, I’m very pleased. The jar contains 120 tablets, which last me about four months. It's both economical and effective. I definitely recommend it!

Relieves abdominal pain
This product is now a favourite of mine. I plan to take it regularly based on my doctor's advice. I had never experienced a period without pain until I began taking these capsules; now the pain in my lower abdomen has vanished, and there is no swelling of the mammary glands. Even some fullness has reduced, and they no longer hurt. I also observed that my nails have become stronger and more beautiful, while my skin is more hydrated. They are spot on when they say it has a positive impact on women's appearance and well-being during the premenstrual period and menopause.

Menopausal symptom relief
6 people found this helpful
After turning 50, I didn’t experience significant menopausal symptoms, apart from rough skin on my elbows and swelling around my eyes. It did not respond to topical treatments. I started taking this product, and after about a week, the symptoms improved significantly within a month, leading to no symptoms at all. I continue to take one capsule daily.

May cause complications

Only use after consulting a nutritionist! I self-prescribed these, and instead of feeling well, I ended up with a delay in my cycle, weight gain, swelling of the glands, and extreme irritability. I believe the remedy is effective, but it must be taken correctly.

Improves hormonal balance
Evening primrose oil is a fantastic product, particularly for women. With long-term use, my hormonal balance becomes stabilised, alleviating PMS symptoms, such as swelling and discomfort in my chest before my period, as well as irritability. It also acts as protection against skin ageing, making me feel and look youthful. I typically take the supplement for three months, then pause for one to two months before resuming. I use a dose of 1300 mg once daily. This review was penned by my mother, as I gifted her the vitamins.

Less menstrual discomfort

Initially, these tablets were a bit large and tricky to swallow, but I adjusted quickly. I began taking one daily a week before my period, which significantly reduced my backache and chest swelling before menstruation, resulting in a much more comfortable menstrual experience. Highly recommended!

Relieves PMS symptoms
9 people found this helpful
Evening primrose oil is excellent for women, especially those dealing with premenstrual syndrome. It alleviates the symptoms, which my gynecologist recommended to manage PMS. It effectively helps with swelling in feminine areas; however, it's essential to do so under medical supervision to maintain hormonal balance. The oil also improves skin quality and reduces the appearance of spots. It provides menstrual relief and decreases hot flashes, proving its worth as a supplement.
